Miles has been waiting for some time to receive some money from his brothers but in consequence of the failure of their small grain crop they cannot raise it until spring. Miles must raise $175 by New Years Day. As he is a stranger, he calls on Timon to procure it for him. He will return it in 2 or 3 months; his crop is good for double the amount. The money is to make a payment for his land. Miles was at the Cape yesterday; several strangers were in search of church. If they are not to have church shortly and the money can be raised, Miles will come up at Christmas., P.S. He has about 500 bushels of corn; Timon can have as much as he likes at market price. :: IV-3-j A.L.S. 3pp. 4to.
